Slow Club

A relative newcomer on the circuit, Hop Farm Festival promises exclusive performances and a varied musical roster set in the glorious Kent countryside. We highlight ten acts we think you should see, including
Bob Dylan, Slow Club,
Patti Smith and Gruff Rhys.

Canadians have a headstart on the rest of us when it comes to the joys of Slow Club. Over there, a recent TV commercial for Ritz crackers was soundtracked by the Sheffield duo's song, When I Go. As Charles Watson and Rebecca Taylor sweetly coo the lines 'If we're both not married by 22, could I be so bold and ask you?', you could be forgiven for thinking that the pair exist in a similar world of childish crushes and innocent romance.
